Description
The **“Himalaya” genuine alligator leather strap** by ABP Concept is an exceptional piece designed for watch enthusiasts seeking a rare and luxurious touch for their Apple Watch. This exotic leather with its Himalaya hue offers a subtle gradient — lighter in the center, darker at the edges — evoking the snow-capped peaks of great mountain ranges. A unique piece that stands out, ideal for enhancing a dress watch or bringing singular elegance to a sportier model.
Material & Aesthetics
Crafted from genuine alligator, the Himalaya model features well-defined, square or rectangular scales, treated with a matte tanning process to preserve the leather’s authenticity and nobility. The leather’s treatment gives it this distinctive gradient (“natural shade”) finish, highly sought after in the world of exotic leather. The soft and breathable calfskin lining ensures optimal comfort for extended wear.
Design & Finishes
- Flat thickness of approximately **2.5 mm** for a sleek feel close to the case, without excessive bulk.
- Ecru stop points (visible stitching) that highlight the leather’s style and details.
- Matching “Apple Watch style” adapters and pin buckle, available in steel, black, gold, or rose gold, to harmonize the strap with the watch case.
Fit, Sizes & Compatibility
Available in three lengths to perfectly fit different wrist sizes: approximately **S** (105/65 mm) for wrists 14.5‑16.5 cm, **M** (115/75 mm) for ≃ 16.5‑18.5 cm, and **L** (125/85 mm) for ≃ 18.5‑20.5 cm. This strap is compatible with Apple Watch sizes 38 mm, 40 mm, 41 mm, 42 mm, 44 mm, 45 mm, and 49 mm via the provided adapters.
Production, Exclusivity & Lead Time
Each Himalaya strap is handcrafted in ABP Concept’s workshops in Paris. Due to the rarity of the hides and the complexity of the tanning process required to achieve this characteristic gradient, the production lead time is **1 to 2 weeks**. The Himalaya collection is considered a capsule series, with limited stock depending on the colors (dark gray, light gray, brown, blue, green, red…).
